Clara Humble and the Not-So-Super Powers available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Clara Humble may seem like your average fourth-grader who doesn't look before she leaps, but she has a secret: she thinks she might have superpowers. Which is convenient, because things aren't going so well for Clara. Students from rival R. R. Reginald are moving into her school for the term, and Clara's favorite neighbor is moving to a faraway retirement home. Together with her best friend, Bradley, Clara becomes convinced that her knack for making liquids spill, overhearing her parents' conversations, communicating with her pet chinchilla, and maybe even mind-controlling teachers could be used to put a stop to these injustices. Told in Clara's clever, funny, and strikingly authentic voice, this novel, annotated with Clara's comic sketches, kicks off a new series by inviting readers into this memorable character's inventive mind to share in her misadventures.

"Clara and her best friend, Bradley, are watching their favourite kids' game show, Smarty Pants. Suddenly, the room goes quiet (partly because Bradley's nanny shuts off the vacuum) while the host makes a big announcement: Smarty Pants is coming to Clara's town! And they're holding tryouts! Clara is confident that with her trivia know-how and her winning personality, not only will she earn a place on the show, she will win--with Bradley's help, of course. But when Bradley's mom's interfering boyfriend, Stuart, forces Bradley try out too, things get a lot more complicated. Add Clara's bully neighbour Shane into the mix, and the battle is on... and not everyone is playing fair. Will Clara be able to hold her own, even if Bradley's not by her side? Or will she lose sight of what's really important? Black and white line drawings throughout (meant to be Clara's hand-drawn comics). Second book in a three-book series, new in paperback."--

This book was released on 2011-02-22. Tough Choices available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. By accepting the CEO job at Hewlett-Packard, an iconic company that had lost its way, Carly Fiorina confirmed her status as the most powerful businesswoman in America. But she also made herself a target for everyone who disliked her bold leadership style and resented her rapid rise. For six years, as she led HP through drastic changes and a controversial merger, Fiorina was the subject of endless analysis, debate and speculation. Yet in all that time, the public never really got to know the person behind the persona. Tough Choices finally reveals the real Carly Fiorina, who writes with brutal honesty about her triumphs and failures, her deepest fears and most painful confrontations – including her sudden and very public firing by HP's board of directors. Tough Choices shows what it's really like to lead a major corporation in a time of great change while trying to stay true to your values. It's one woman's inspiring story, along with her unique perspective on leadership, technology, globalisation, sexism and many other issues. "Superb... certain to be a hit. Ms Fiorina is at her best when recounting the travails of a woman in a male-dominated culture. She is also good in her psychological descriptions of the constant betrayals that occur in corporate bureaucracies. The woman that emerges from these pages is cultured, sensitive and vulnerable, even as she acts tough." —The Economist
